Arsene Wenger says he is confident Bacary Sagna will sign a new contract with Arsenal, warning Manchester City off making an ‘illegal’ offer.

Sagna’s current deal expires at the end of the season and he has reportedly attracted interest from Inter Milan, Galatasaray and Man City, despite only being able to discuss a pre-contract with a foreign club.

But Wenger is sure Sagna will remain at the Emirates, with a deal on the table ready for the right-back to sign.

‘He has an offer, he has not come back to us yet. That [City offer] cannot be right because it’s illegal,’ the Frenchman said.

‘I’m confident he will stay but we will accept his decision. No matter what his decision will be, we will accept it and go on with it.’
